Overview/Rates ↑↓

DESCRIPTION: Carnival Beach House is an elegant three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath beachfront villa with a private pool. The home was built in 2006 and consists of a one-level main house plus a two-level, two-bedroom guest house located to the right of the main house. The pool is conveniently located off the deck of the main house and is also just a few steps from the guesthouse.

Carnival Beach was designed and built by Glen Speers, a prominent St. John designer/builder of classic Caribbean homes and Mongoose Junction. We wonder if you'll find lovelier stonework anywhere on St. John than what you'll see in Carnival Beach. The gorgeous stonewalls demonstrate that beautiful artwork hangs on a wall and sometimes on the wall itself. Another outstanding feature of Carnival Beach is the covered lanai (outdoor living room), which is furnished with premium indoor/outdoor furniture and offers a delightful place to relax outdoors while protected from the sun. Although the lanai is covered, there is also a large uncovered deck for sun lovers.

In both the main house and the guesthouse, the kitchen and bathroom cabinets and the screen doors were all made locally from Honduran mahogany. Mahogany trim abounds around the doors, floors, and ceiling, giving this modern-day home a classic feel. The island elegance continues in the exterior design, which includes terra cotta-tiled deck space and light fixtures made by St. John artist Donald Schnell.

The guest house boasts a nouveau two-story design with 2 studio suites. Guests staying in the top unit enter their suite from a landing, while those on the ground floor descend a set of exterior tiled stairs to their private entrance below. Both guest suites are a few steps from the pool and the main house.

A feature we know our guests are sure to welcome is the solar panels with a Tesla battery backup system. If the power goes out, the Tesla battery will kick in, so you will not be without power. This will be a welcomed amenity for those unexpected power outages.

If you are looking for an elegant home with beautiful views and water access, Carnival Beach House is the choice for you. It is perfect for honeymooners, couples, and families.

Carnival Beach House is one of four homes located on Klein Bay's pebble/sand beach. Klein Bay is a small, well-protected cove that is part of Rendezvous Bay on St. John's sunny south shore. There are no hotels, condos, or B&Bs in Klein Bay; only a few luxury vacation villas exist. The dead-end road that leads down to Carnival Beach ends two houses beyond Carnival, so there is very little vehicular traffic here, which creates an exceptionally peaceful and quiet neighborhood. The only noise you'll hear with regularity is the sweet sound of the surf gently breaking in your front yard and the soft trade winds blowing through the trees.

Carnival Beach House is unquestionably a beautiful villa in an exquisite setting. Although Carnival Beach has a villa on either side of the house, lush tropical vegetation and a well-designed landscaping plan create a setting with very good visual privacy. Carnival Beach faces south, so it is also a sun worshipper's villa, and the pool and decks are bathed in sunshine from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Carnival also offers discreet clothing-optional privacy for a full-body tan.

The pebble/sand beach at Klein Bay is more pebbles than sand, although this mixture differs from year to year, depending mainly on what the fall storms deposit or wash away. The shoreline is protected from heavy surf and strong winds by Ditleff Point, which is a peninsula that curves into the Caribbean and shelters Klein Bay. The small surf and crystal clear waters almost every day provide good swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddle boarding. Kayak and paddleboard rentals are available by the day or week in Cruz Bay, and they'll usually be delivered to your villa if rented for the week.

A 5-10 minute swim, snorkel, or paddle takes you to an even nicer white sand beach on Ditleff Point. Cruz Bay is only a 10-minute drive on paved roads. You rarely, if ever, see a tourist in Klein Bay unless they're also staying in a nearby vacation villa.

LIVING & DINING: The main house's great room is spacious and beautifully furnished. The doors along the front of the main house open and look out to the breathtaking view of Klein Bay. Nothing is more peaceful and inviting than opening the doors, looking out at the view, and letting the serenity of the surf relax you. The interior dining table seats 6, and there are 2 outside tables, each of which seats 4; one is located to the left of the living area, and the other is located just off the entrance to the guest house. The main living area of the home includes cable TV. Each studio suite also has its own comfortable living space and includes cable TV. WiFi internet access is provided so you can keep in touch with envious friends and family from your luxurious beachfront villa.

KITCHEN: The kitchen in the main house is well equipped and includes a side-by-side refrigerator and freezer, a four-burner glass-topped electric stove, a microwave, dishwasher, blender, toaster, and drip coffee maker. Both guest house bedroom suites have their own kitchenette, equipped with a built-in hot plate, microwave oven, small refrigerator, drip coffee maker, blender, and toaster. There is also a BBQ for grilling.

BEDROOMS: The bedroom in the main house is off the left side of the great room (looking at the water) and has a king-size sleigh bed and very handsome matching furniture, including a desk and a breakfast table for two. This bedroom opens to the private deck that also serves as the lanai (outdoor living room)
The two-bedroom suites in the guesthouse are similar in size and furnishings. Each is gracefully furnished with a queen bed and sitting area, and each opens to a private deck with ocean views, deck furniture, and an exterior table for two. The upper suite also includes a lanai (covered outdoor living room) off the entrance to the bedroom. The guest bedrooms are considered suites because they include a couch and interior table, a small kitchenette with a sink, a small refrigerator, a microwave, a coffeemaker, and a toaster. The three attractive bathrooms have similar appointments, such as mahogany vanities, tiled countertops, and showers. All three bedrooms are air-conditioned and include cable TV.

"This was a great rental. Well equipped, very clean, beautiful view. We would definitely stay here again. It would be awesome if the trees in front of the patio were trimmed so you could see the water. Water pressure in the guest house could be better. The Stoney beach is difficult to maneuver. None of these things deterred from having a fantastic two weeks on our favorite island.

"I have stayed at Carnival Beach House many times and it never disappoints. This year, the investments made by the new owners really enhanced the experience. The pool is lovely, and what a treat to snorkel right off our own beach! Lots of privacy, yet close to all amenities in town. The Caribbean Villas team is great to work with - very responsive and helpful from the day of first inquiry about availability to the day we dropped off our keys at the end of the stay. Thank you for a great week!

"We enjoyed every aspect Carnival Beach House has to offer. The beaches, restaurants, shopping are all within a short drive. The pool was perfect after a long day at the beach and outdoor cooking in the evening was wonderful. We strongly recommend Carnival Beach House and will definitely visit again.

"Our stay at the Carnival Beach house exceeded our expectations. We were greeted at the ferry dock in Cruz Bay by a very friendly representative of Caribean Villas. She directed us to our rental car and escorted us to the amazing villa. Everything was immaculate and clean. We rented both the guest house and main house. The view was breathtaking from all areas of the property. One of the many highlights of our stay was morning coffee on the terrace listening to the ocean waves to cocktails at night viewing the spectacular display of stars. An extra bonus was seeing the Southern Cross constellation at 5:00am (getting up for a fishing trip that day) The snorkeling and kayaking from the private beach was the best of all of our snorkeling adventures on the island that week. We saw turtles, stingrays, conch shells, squid, eels, and an array of the most colorful fish and coral we had seen. We prepared many meals at the house and the kitchen was fully stocked with any type of utensil one would need to make a gourmet meal. The house itself has great private areas and gathering spaces both inside and out. Not to mention, the house is in a very quiet area of the island but yet has easy access to Cruz Bay. On a side note, the representatives from Caribbean Villa were always friendly and available to help, both before and during our stay. We have been coming to St. John for over 20 years and by far this is the best place we have ever stayed at. We would highly recommend staying at the Carnival Beach House on your next visit to Paradise.

"We were met at the ferry dock at Cruz Bay, guided to our rental jeep and escorted to the property. It was all seamless and very professionally handled. The property caretakers were very attentive to any need we might have, but left us on our own to explore the island and the local environment. We highly recommend this property for a relaxing vacation on a beautiful island.

"The bay is beautiful; the beach is rocky, but we spent most of our water time at the Beach House floating in the private pool. Exquisite sandy beaches with great snorkeling can be found all over the north shore of St. John, about a 20-30 minute ride.

"There are two studio apartments available. With just two of us, we were given the upper apartment (better view), and the lower apartment was unrented during our week. The accommodations are very well appointed and everything you need is in the apartment. The kitchen facilities are limited (one hot plateburner, microwave, outdoor gas grill, coffee maker, small fridge), so dont plan on cooking elaborate meals. We knew this going in, so it was not a serious limitation. You cant go hungry on St. John!

"The property is about 3 miles from Cruz Bay, and you will need the suggested jeep to comfortably negotiate the steep roads. The reward is a beautiful, secluded getaway. The best pictures you can find online match the typical views from the house.

"This trip was booked through Caribbean Villas, which we found through Fodors and Frommers. Whenever you book something online, you are never sure if the actual property lives up to the promotional pictures and advertisements. In this case, the Carnival Beach House exceeded all expectations.

"I wanted to let you know how much my wife, Cathy, and I enjoyed our visit to St. John and the Carnival Beach House! We stayed there from Sunday, April 23, to Friday, April 28, and had a wonderful time. The villa was beautiful, private, with fabulous views and met all our expectations! We especially enjoyed the pool after a long day out exploring the beaches or cruising around the island.

"We stayed in Carnival Beach House back in July, and I just wanted to let you know that we really enjoyed the space. (I know this is much delayed.) We had a few concerns when we arrived, and everything was taken care of everything so quickly! We enjoyed the house so much and would definitely recommend the space as a great place to stay. The jeep rental was great as well. So, just want to say thank you we really enjoyed our July visit to St. John and now that cold weather is in the forecast, we are looking to go back hopefully this winter!
